In a sit-down interview with ESPN’s Dave McMenamin, Anthony Davis of the Los Angeles Lakers discussed his role for the team:

“My role is to be a leader alongside LeBron. It’s to help this team get as many wins as possible and try to reach our goal which is to win the championship. You know, we have a lot of work to do, I have to make sure I lead by example. And on the floor, my role starts with being the defensive anchor, and when I’m on the floor, get everyone talking and make sure I’m talking,” Davis said, per Lakers Nation.

So far this year, Davis is averaging 26.6 points, 9.2 rebounds, 1.6 steals, 2.4 blocks, and 3.3 assists per game, while shooting at 51.9% from the field.
